00:00:00Now, forever, together.
00:00:18How do you possibly follow up Vegas?
00:00:29You come here to Cowtown, Tuff, Fort Worth.
00:00:33You open the doors to a sold-out Dickies Arena.
00:00:36And you serve a loud and rowdy crowd.
00:00:39A guarantee of tables, ladders, and chairs.
00:00:42Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford hold gold.
00:00:46They've been unrelenting in applying their brand of dominance lately.
00:00:50Tonight, the Street Profits have a huge challenge.
00:00:53The Motor City Machine Guns have been throttling towards the title.
00:00:57A week ago, they thought they had it all set.
00:00:59Only to see the championship match disrupted.
00:01:02And now, DIY is here at Corkworth.
00:01:06Johnny Gargano and a clean shaven Tommaso Ciampa.
00:01:10They turn the smash down before Mania into their personal temper tantrum.
00:01:13Well, tonight, we decide it all.
00:01:15A TLC triple threat.
00:01:17And it's commercial free in the final hour of SmackDown.
00:01:19Plus, arguably the most dangerous man of all.
00:01:22Jacob Matsu proved himself.
00:01:24Now, for the first time, he's a champion here.
00:01:26With Solo Sokoa by his side.
00:01:28The U.S. champ is in Fort Worth this evening.
00:01:31Plus, from Tiffany Stratton's Barbie doll entrance to the all-out war in Cochran's Charlotte Flair.
00:01:36Tiffy time, on time here in Texas.
00:01:39We'll hear from the WWE Women's Champion as we welcome you inside a sold-out Dickey's Arena in Fort Worth.
00:01:47This is what the SmackDown after Mania sounds like.
00:01:50It looks like, let's feel the afterglow of a historic weekend in Vegas.
00:01:59Wrestlemania.
00:02:00Wrestlemania week is taking over Las Vegas.
00:02:03The hype is just unreal right now.
00:02:05Welcome to Wrestlemania weekend.
00:02:09We have fans from all over the globe descending upon our fine city.
00:02:14Fans can also immerse themselves.
00:02:16It's the only place to be.
00:02:18WWE world.
00:02:19It's like old times.
00:02:22You can feel what the audience is doing.
00:02:27And then you can become connected with them.
00:02:29Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.
00:02:31Phonetics Make-A-Wish Nevada and WWE team thus to give 25 kids from across the country a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
00:02:39They stand and deliver.
00:02:41We will never, ever forget.
00:02:43Oh, hell yeah.
00:02:48Hello, Las Vegas.
00:02:55You are looking live at Allegiant Stadium.
00:02:59Welcome to Wrestlemania.
00:03:08Now we're kicking off the show.
00:03:11He did.
00:03:12He did.
00:03:13He did.
00:03:13He did.
00:03:13He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:14He did.
00:03:15He did.
00:03:15He did.
00:03:16He did.
00:03:16He did.
00:03:17He did.
00:03:17He did.
00:03:18Hell yeah.
00:03:19Two-time world shot, Ruth.
00:03:21The career is my stake.
00:03:23We will promise.
00:03:24It was so amazing.
00:03:25So exhilarating.
00:03:26And I'm super grateful.
00:03:27It's the beginning of a new chapter in the story of Lucha Libre.
00:03:34This guest here tonight, Mekinko, Americano wins his Wrestlemania debut.
00:03:42Have you held this title?
00:03:43It's a couple times.
00:03:44Yeah, I've done better than you already.
00:03:45Crazy.
00:03:47Two days, 124,000 solid-ass cats.
00:03:52I've got two words for you.
00:04:01I've never been in front of a crowd so alive.
00:04:04Thank you, guys.
00:04:07Jacob Martu is the United States champion.
00:04:10What made now the right time for you to step back into this world?
00:04:24Well, it's WrestleMania, isn't it?
00:04:31So how much bigger can it get?
00:04:32Legit.
00:04:33I just don't think there's a ceiling on it.
00:04:35I was born to make this moment.
00:04:47There is a ton of bad blood between these three.
00:04:55What a compromising position CM Punk put me in.
00:04:58I didn't betray Roman Reigns.
00:05:05It is John Cena's final Wrestlemania.
00:05:12For Cody Rhodes, it is about leading WWE into the next generation.
00:05:17Kick out by Cody.
00:05:29Kick out by Cody.
00:05:38Travis Scott is here.
00:05:43Kick out, Cody.
00:05:44John Cena is the 17th time world champion.
00:05:52You are now talking to the last real champion.
00:05:55You are now talking to the last real champion.
00:05:55You are now talking to the last real champion.
00:06:14You are now trying to be champion.
00:06:26Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome
00:06:54The WWE Undisputed Champion, John Cena!
00:07:09The now 17-time World Champion.
00:07:14Last time we saw him, Wade, he was telling the WWE Universe that he'll stay champion this impeller calendar year
00:07:21and then leads with the title in his terms to ruin wrestling.
00:07:25Yeah, the self-proclaimed last real champion.
00:07:29I sincerely hope that is not the case.
00:07:32But what a level of disrespect, not only to the people that have backed this man for the past 20-plus years,
00:07:39but to that prestigious championship.
00:07:43Wearing it backwards, it's just a big no-no in this game.
00:07:47He's pointing at our new ring announcer, Mark Nash, again?
00:08:05What did Mark do wrong?
00:08:07Well, apparently he did something wrong this past week on Raw.
00:08:11That's what we did!
00:08:39Let's go.
00:09:09Let's go.
00:09:10My sincerest apologies.
00:09:21I have been informed again that my announcement has been deemed disrespectful.
00:09:28Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the greatest of all time.
00:09:39The never-seen 17, gracing Fort Worth with his presence for the final time.
00:09:49The last real champion, John T. Mack!
00:10:46Well, the other night on Monday Night Raw, creeping into the frame with the new undisputed
00:11:07WWE champ was Randy Orton himself, and look who arrives on time here in Fort Worth.
00:11:16The Viper, Randy Orton, striking with an RKO on Raw, letting John Cena know that his pathway
00:11:25to retirement with that championship on his shoulder may not quite be as easy as he may
00:11:31have thought.
00:11:32That's one thing for Randy Orton to entertain the fans in Vegas with an RKO party on Joe
00:11:38Hendry.
00:11:38It's another thing to do what he did on Monday night to John Cena.
00:12:18I'm ready for the world to set up a mission to the world
00:12:25The justice of the world, the violence of the world
00:12:31The justice of the world, the faith of the world
00:12:36I'm ready for him to run and take out the freedom
00:12:41Take out the freedom, take out the freedom
00:12:44Take out the freedom
00:12:47Take out the freedom, take out the freedom
00:12:51Take out the freedom
00:12:55Take out the freedom
00:13:16I hear voices crying, I see arrows flying, I can't stop and try it.
00:13:46Do you know what I found out just a couple days ago?
00:14:05In a couple months, it'll be 25 years to the day that you and I first shook hands.
00:14:1125 years, I have known you for 25 years, and I mean this as a compliment, up until a few
00:14:23months ago, you never changed, you were always about hustle, loyalty, respect, it wasn't
00:14:31some catchy slogan for merchandise, it was a way of life, it was your mantra for every
00:14:38day of your life.
00:14:42So I realized these last few months, I need to think long and hard about what's going
00:14:47on.
00:14:48There's a void inside you, John, a void that needs fulfillment.
00:14:54So I started racking my brain, and I started thinking about all of the fans over the years.
00:15:05The millions and millions of kids that have looked up to you since day one.
00:15:11All the kids that you have motivated, that you have been a role model for.
00:15:16These kids, they set goals because of you.
00:15:19They accomplished those goals and set more goals.
00:15:22Whether it was the track, field, on the court, in the classroom, you made those children better.
00:15:27Generations and generations of children looked up to you, and surely that means something
00:15:36to you.
00:15:38You've granted more wishes than anybody in the history of the Make-A-Wish Free of the Make-A-Wish
00:15:44Foundation.
00:15:47You can't tell me, I know you too well, you cannot tell me that each and every one of
00:15:57those sick children that you've met left with a piece of your heart.
00:16:02You can't tell me that they were just a number.
00:16:04I know that that meant something to you, so I figured out how to fill the void.
00:16:25Take it from me, John, you need to have some damn kids.
00:16:34Wait, wait, could you imagine a bunch of square-jawed, thick, four-armed little Cenas running around?
00:16:40The world would be a better place, and then you would be back to who you are, who you truly
00:16:46are, who I know you are.
00:16:49You need to become a father, man, grow up, it'll make you a better human being.
00:17:18How dare you, how dare you, how dare you, prance out here with a smile on your face under
00:17:29the guise of making me feel better and then parent-shame me in front of the whole world.
00:17:39Congratulations, Randy Orton.
00:17:45You have children, and you love them.
00:17:50Good for you.
00:17:54Do you want to know the real reason why I don't have kids?
00:18:01Because I've spent the last 25 years raising yours!
00:18:16And by the sound of it from this group tonight, I have done an impeccable job!
00:18:26Here is the real truth.
00:18:29For the last 25 years, I have been a better parent to your children than you could ever be!
00:18:42That's right, kid, your dad's a loser!
00:18:46Oh great, a six-year-old just gave me the finger!
00:18:53Classy!
00:18:54Very, very classy!
00:18:57That, sir, that is why I don't have kids!
00:19:04I've been policing brats like this for a quarter of a century!
00:19:18Bit of advice, kid, never bring a knife to a gunfight!
00:19:27Bet your loser dad didn't teach you that one!
00:19:32Don't look at me like you're going to do something, either!
00:19:37Are we done here?
00:19:38John, no, we're not even close to being done, man!
00:19:41God, has that Hollywood rot, has it set so deep inside your brain you can't even hear what I'm saying right now?
00:19:49It doesn't have to be one or the other!
00:19:51These fans are the reason why you are here standing before me in this ring right now!
00:19:57They're the reason you're in Hollywood right now!
00:20:01WWE is why you made it to Hollywood and you are crushing it!
00:20:04You cut your teeth here!
00:20:06You honed your skills here!
00:20:08You developed your work ethic in this ring!
00:20:10You took it to Hollywood and like I said, you are crushing it!
00:20:14Without the WWE, there is no Hollywood!
00:20:16And without the WWE Universe, there is no WWE!
00:20:22No matter which way you add it up, no matter what kind of math you apply to it, these fans are the biggest reason that you are standing here today in this ring with me!
00:20:38John, I've made a lot of mistakes throughout my life, throughout my career, I've learned from them, I've had a long journey, but I can go in that locker room, I can hold my head up high, and I get respect from my peers!
00:20:53I am a piece of furniture here, I am here to stay!
00:20:58Hey, you!
00:20:59You!
00:21:00You!
00:21:01You!
00:21:02Man, you're just a guest!
00:21:05We all have our perspectives!
00:21:15I used to believe yours, that without them, there is no WWE!
00:21:23I used to think that we won together!
00:21:27I was wrong. We didn't win anything. I did.
00:21:33I have never needed a single one of these people.
00:21:38They will chant. They will chant in the same breath.
00:21:45Let's go, Cena. Cena sucks.
00:21:57I just called out a rando and he turned pale white.
00:22:07Imagine being told you suck for 25 years.
00:22:12They don't mean anything to me.
00:22:15You are just like all of them.
00:22:20You're all hypocrites.
00:22:22Because once you get tired of me, you can put your energy into any superstar you want to cheer for.
00:22:35But if the roles are reversed and I put my energy into anything other than this,
00:22:42I'm an outcast. I'm a guest.
00:22:46That's why this is dysfunctional.
00:22:49That's why this doesn't work anymore.
00:22:51That is not a functional relationship.
00:22:55That is manipulation.
00:22:59You are simply manipulating the truth to make yourself feel good
00:23:06that you have done nothing with your lies.
00:23:11The only thing that man right there has done is dress up to look like Jack Black.
00:23:18He's 100 years old and that's all he has to say for his life.
00:23:30I get criticized and labeled as an outcast, a guest for simply trying to do something different.
00:23:45You know what, you know what, you know what, you know what, I was so, I was so stupid.
00:23:54I was so stupid, stupid, stupid to come out here and think for one second
00:23:59that in this weird bizarro world where I'm a good guy and you're a bad guy
00:24:03that you would somehow listen to what I'm saying.
00:24:05But the words that are coming out of my mouth, they're not penetrating your thick-ass skull, are they, John?
00:24:11Cody Rose, before his badass entrance music starts, it says wrestling has more than one royal family.
00:24:19You know he's not just talking about his family, right?
00:24:22He's also talking about my family.
00:24:26You want to ruin wrestling?
00:24:29Wrestling has given me everything.
00:24:31Ever since I came out of my mother's womb, wrestling has provided for me.
00:24:36Wrestling will provide for me, my children, my loved ones,
00:24:39until I am put six feet in the freaking ground.
00:24:42Ruin wrestling.
00:24:43You're not going to ruin wrestling, not over my dead body.
00:24:46Shut your mouth!
00:24:47You just don't understand, do you?
00:24:57I'll explain it to you.
00:24:59I've already won 17, okay?
00:25:06You've won 14.
00:25:08But after I take this home with me, you are forever frozen at 14.
00:25:15Yes, there will be another show.
00:25:18You will have other matches.
00:25:20They will create some tinfoil title and decide a champion.
00:25:24And if you are lucky to ever get your hands on it,
00:25:27your counter starts over at 1, you babbling moron.
00:25:33What I am trying to do, Randy Orton,
00:25:38is when I leave here,
00:25:40make sure three generations of your family is erased.
00:25:46You say you're the last real champ.
00:26:08All right, prove it.
00:26:09Right here, right now.
00:26:10Put that title on the line and fight me.
00:26:13Right here, right now.
00:26:14Come on.
00:26:15Come on.
00:26:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:26:19You ain't been racing left on me.
00:26:21That's your no way in hell.
00:26:23How dare you say that, Jimmy,
00:26:25after everything you've been through?
00:26:27How dare you say that, Jimmy?
00:26:28All you've been through, I love you, Jimmy.
00:26:30How dare you?
00:26:36No.
00:26:42No.
00:26:43No.
00:26:43And just like so many times over the past 25 years,
00:26:50I'm doing it to save your ass.
00:26:56There should be a match.
00:26:58Randy Orton versus John Cena
00:27:01for the undisputed championship.
00:27:04For the undisputed championship.
00:27:08But it shouldn't happen here.
00:27:14I've already given you a hard enough time.
00:27:16It's not your fault.
00:27:17It's for Randy.
00:27:17It should happen at Backlash, Randy.
00:27:22Because Backlash is in St. Louis.
00:27:26I know that's hard for you to hear,
00:27:28but for Randy, it's great,
00:27:29because Randy is from St. Louis.
00:27:31So you can spend the whole day with your family, Randy.
00:27:36You can make sure you show up well-rested.
00:27:39Randy Orton at his best.
00:27:42Because I need Randy Orton at his best.
00:27:46Because after Backlash,
00:27:50when you fail,
00:27:53you will have no excuses.
00:27:57Take a good look, Randy.
00:28:01This is what the last real champion looks like.
00:28:10And this
00:28:17is as close to this championship
00:28:20as you're ever going to get.
00:28:28Oh!
00:28:30Cena comes in with a right hand
00:28:32and attacks the Viper.
00:28:33A soccer punch
00:28:35from the self-proclaimed last real champ
00:28:38who got humiliated by the Viper
00:28:40on Monday Night Raw.
00:28:44Saying he's going to take this title
00:28:45and erase three generations of your family, Randy.
00:28:50And now he's lining up, it looks like,
00:28:53with that title in hand
00:28:55to hit Randy Orton.
00:28:56Once again,
00:28:57the most desperate cheap shot
00:28:59from John Cena.
00:29:01Looking at the win.
00:29:02Oh!
00:29:02Orton gets all the way!
00:29:04RKO!
00:29:08Don't bring a knife to a gunfight,
00:29:14John Cena.
00:29:15Your own words!
00:29:18He did it on Monday.
00:29:20He does it here
00:29:21on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:29:24And that undisputed
00:29:26WWE Championship
00:29:28lays there
00:29:30with Cena laid out.
00:29:32The voices are getting louder
00:29:34in this arena
00:29:35and the sadistic voices
00:29:37are getting louder
00:29:38in the mind of Randy Orton.
00:29:43Oh, and the sight
00:29:44of Randy
00:29:46with that championship
00:29:48in his hands.
00:29:50I stand in my head
00:29:51but they cancel me
00:29:52they understand
00:29:54And remember,
00:29:55just as much as we talk about
00:29:56Cena having just broken
00:29:58the all-time record,
00:29:59there Randy sits
00:30:01on 14 himself
00:30:03and the big one
00:30:04in his hometown
00:30:06is just two weeks away.
00:30:08Well, if that gets made
00:30:09official at Backlash,
00:30:11that will be
00:30:1131 World Championship
00:30:13range between
00:30:14the two of them.
00:30:16That must be a record.
00:30:18Make it official, please.
00:30:19From Raw
00:30:21to SmackDown,
00:30:22Cena and Orton.
00:30:24Meanwhile,
00:30:24after 230 days
00:30:25as NXT Tag Team Champions,
00:30:27Fraxium
00:30:28has arrived here
00:30:29to SmackDown.
00:30:33They are
00:30:34Nathan Freezer
00:30:35and Axiom
00:30:37Fraxium!
00:30:44We've created magic
00:30:46from chaos.
00:30:47Bro, it was like
00:30:47lightning in a bottle.
00:30:49Two reigns for
00:30:51Axiom and Fraxium.
00:30:52They've held the titles
00:30:52for over 200
00:30:54combined days.
00:30:55And we're not slowing down.
00:30:57We will be undeniable.
00:30:59One of the most
00:30:59complete tag teams
00:31:00in the business
00:31:01in Fraxium.
00:31:02Perhaps the best tag team

00:32:46Wade, for a
00:32:47better part of
00:32:47the past year,
00:32:48Fraxium, they
00:32:49were the best
00:32:49of the best
00:32:50at NXT.
00:32:51And then this
00:32:52past weekend
00:32:53at an excellent
00:32:54stand and deliver
00:32:55at WrestleMania,
00:32:56they were overtaken
00:32:57by Hank and Tank.
00:32:58Now a really
00:32:59good chance for
00:33:00Fraxium to set
00:33:01a new course.
00:33:01Yeah, massive
00:33:02acquisition for
00:33:03the blue brand
00:33:04here by GM
00:33:05Nick Aldis.
00:33:06Hats off to him
00:33:07for moving so
00:33:07quickly as soon
00:33:08as he realized
00:33:09Fraxium weren't
00:33:11available now
00:33:11in the ring.
00:33:12That is
00:33:12Axiom,
00:33:13Spanish superstar
00:33:15from Madrid.
00:33:16On the outside
00:33:17is Nathan Fraser
00:33:17from the island
00:33:19of Jersey
00:33:19in the UK.
00:33:20What a combination
00:33:21these two are.
00:33:22Yeah, combination
00:33:22indeed.
00:33:23You're gonna see
00:33:23right away
00:33:24just what they
00:33:25can do
00:33:25when they work
00:33:26in sync
00:33:27and look
00:33:27at the speed
00:33:28that's exactly
00:33:28what they
00:33:29are known
00:33:29for.
00:33:30The dynamic
00:33:31speed that
00:33:32creates unique
00:33:33power in the
00:33:33striking ability.
00:33:35Such an incredible
00:33:36blend of athleticism.
00:33:37Axiom really
00:33:38that cold
00:33:38calculated one.
00:33:40Fraxium though
00:33:40really an erratic
00:33:41hothead
00:33:42but they work
00:33:43so well together.
00:33:44Wow!
00:33:45Would you look
00:33:45at Nathan Fraser
00:33:46and how about
00:33:48Axiom as well?
00:33:51Hot start
00:33:51fresh out of
00:33:52the blocks
00:33:53here for Fraxium
00:33:54taking it to
00:33:55up and over!
00:33:58Los Garza
00:33:59hasn't been able
00:34:00to breathe
00:34:01since the beginning
00:34:02here.
00:34:03Message to the
00:34:04entire Smackdown
00:34:05tag division
00:34:05things have changed
00:34:07Michael!
00:34:07My oh my!
00:34:09Quick to the top
00:34:10the moonsault
00:34:10Nathan Fraser
00:34:12and Axiom
00:34:13welcome to
00:34:14Smackdown.
00:34:15Los Garza
00:34:15have not managed
00:34:16to get a shot
00:34:17in thus far.
00:34:17Into the cover
00:34:18and quickly
00:34:19Berto
00:34:19gets Fraser
00:34:21off of him
00:34:21with a kick out.
00:34:22Santos Escobar
00:34:23must be pulling
00:34:24his hair out
00:34:24right now.
00:34:25This has been
00:34:25a disastrous
00:34:26start for the
00:34:27Lucha team.
00:34:28Well Los Garza
00:34:29it's interesting
00:34:30you say that
00:34:30because they've
00:34:30got an airful
00:34:31from Santos Escobar
00:34:32lately.
00:34:32He has been
00:34:33constantly trying
00:34:34to push them
00:34:34to the next level.
00:34:35Far from impressed
00:34:36with their performances.
00:34:37Wow!
00:34:37Cheap move there
00:34:38from Angel
00:34:39and Berto
00:34:39as Axiom
00:34:41falls to the
00:34:41outside.
00:34:42Impressive start
00:34:43but finally
00:34:44Los Garza
00:34:44are in control.
00:34:49Los Garza
00:34:50from
00:34:50Lugado
00:34:50Del Fantasma
00:34:51in control
00:34:52right now.
00:34:52Angel and Berto
00:34:53against Praxium
00:34:54making their
00:34:55Smackdown
00:34:56debut
00:34:56as a team.
00:34:57we saw them
00:34:58individually
00:34:59in recent weeks.
00:35:00He's been picked
00:35:01for Axiom
00:35:02who's trying
00:35:03to break free
00:35:03here in his
00:35:04native Spain
00:35:05and he does
00:35:06as Nathan
00:35:07Fraser
00:35:07springboards
00:35:09his way
00:35:09into action
00:35:10and the super
00:35:11kick
00:35:11and look at
00:35:12him clear
00:35:13things up.
00:35:13Well this is
00:35:141,000 miles
00:35:15an hour
00:35:15stuff now
00:35:16from Nathan
00:35:16Fraser.
00:35:17What a bullet
00:35:18he is.
00:35:19I don't care
00:35:19how hard
00:35:20you throw
00:35:20that one.
00:35:21It's got
00:35:21that pace
00:35:22behind it
00:35:22there's simply
00:35:23no way
00:35:24to block it.
00:35:25Berto
00:35:25in big trouble
00:35:26here.
00:35:26Swing blade
00:35:27and now
00:35:27springboards
00:35:28his way
00:35:29but oh no.
00:35:31look at this
00:35:32senton
00:35:34into the
00:35:35cover.
00:35:37All that
00:35:37high
00:35:38revving
00:35:38energy
00:35:39and couldn't
00:35:40put it away.
00:35:41I've got to
00:35:41upgrade my
00:35:42eyeballs
00:35:42the frame rate
00:35:43is simply
00:35:44not quick
00:35:44enough
00:35:45to keep
00:35:45up with
00:35:46Nathan
00:35:46Fraser.
00:35:47Now they
00:35:47are a
00:35:48blur.
00:35:48It is a
00:35:49vapor trail
00:35:50every time
00:35:50he runs
00:35:51the ropes.
00:35:52You're so
00:35:52dynamic in
00:35:53there.
00:35:54Jaw
00:35:54dropping
00:35:55movement
00:35:55but Berto
00:35:57has a trick
00:35:58or two
00:35:58up his sleeve
00:35:59too and I
00:36:00don't think
00:36:00Nathan Fraser
00:36:01saw that
00:36:02tag to
00:36:02Angel.
00:36:02No.
00:36:03There was a
00:36:03blind tag
00:36:04and coming
00:36:05in was
00:36:06Angel with
00:36:06the kick
00:36:07hooks the
00:36:07leg and
00:36:08getting that
00:36:09right shoulder
00:36:10up at the
00:36:10last possible
00:36:11second was
00:36:12Fraser.
00:36:13Yeah all the
00:36:13momentum of
00:36:14that moonsault
00:36:15combined with
00:36:15that kick to
00:36:16the jaw that
00:36:17precision strike
00:36:18from Angel
00:36:19and now it's
00:36:19the durability
00:36:20of Fraser
00:36:21that has kept
00:36:22Fraxium in
00:36:22this one.
00:36:24And they are
00:36:25heading on up.
00:36:28We've seen
00:36:29how dangerous
00:36:29they could be
00:36:30with their
00:36:31teamwork from
00:36:32up high.
00:36:38MTY.
00:36:40From the
00:36:40top of
00:36:41Super MTY
00:36:42now clean
00:36:43it house.
00:36:45Berto.
00:36:46Exclamation
00:36:47point on this
00:36:48one.
00:36:49Oh and
00:36:50coming in and
00:36:50making the
00:36:51save through
00:36:52all the traffic
00:36:53was the
00:36:54five foot
00:36:55eight Axiom.
00:36:56what a
00:36:57more look
00:36:58at this.
00:36:58This is right
00:36:58after the
00:36:59Super MTY.
00:37:00No kicking
00:37:01out here.
00:37:02But Nathan
00:37:02Fraser it was
00:37:03over and
00:37:04as desperate
00:37:04as Angel
00:37:06tried to
00:37:06prevent
00:37:07Axiom
00:37:07breaking that
00:37:08up it
00:37:09wasn't enough.
00:37:10Fraxium
00:37:11refusing to be
00:37:12denied here
00:37:12on their tag team
00:37:14debut on
00:37:14SmackDown.
00:37:15For Fraxium to
00:37:16survive that
00:37:17Super MTY.
00:37:18I remember
00:37:18Tess landed
00:37:18on his feet
00:37:19a few weeks
00:37:20ago.
00:37:20That was a
00:37:20dynamic move.
00:37:22But this was
00:37:22teamwork and
00:37:23will and
00:37:23grit to get
00:37:24out of it.
00:37:24And now
00:37:25toe to toe
00:37:26right in the
00:37:27middle of the
00:37:27ring.
00:37:28Axiom
00:37:28and Angel.
00:37:30Oh nothing
00:37:31pretty about
00:37:32this now.
00:37:32We are in
00:37:33a dogfight.
00:37:35Oh headbutt
00:37:36there too.
00:37:36And you gotta
00:37:37think with that
00:37:37acquisition of

00:37:41That industry

00:37:43These luchadors
00:37:44are desperate to
00:37:45put their best
00:37:46foot forward.
00:37:48kick coming
00:37:49up top as
00:37:50Angel was
00:37:50climbing up to
00:37:51the top and
00:37:51now Axiom
00:37:54to meet him
00:37:55there.
00:37:56What a thrill

00:37:58been but is

00:39:23Ladies and
00:39:39gentlemen, please
00:39:41welcome the
00:39:42WWE Women's
00:39:44Champion, Tiffany
00:39:46Stratton!
00:39:49So here comes the
00:39:50well-earned victory
00:39:51lap after a hard-fought
00:39:52match, and for
00:39:53Tiffany Stratton,
00:39:54WrestleMania was
00:39:55more than just a
00:39:56palatable bench.
00:39:57Charlotte Flair really
00:39:57watched her in ways
00:39:59leading up to
00:39:59WrestleMania that
00:40:00few could have.
00:40:01Wade, I think for
00:40:02the WWE Women's
00:40:03Champion, she's
00:40:04forever changed
00:40:05because of that
00:40:05match and that
00:40:06experience and that
00:40:07build-up, and it's
00:40:08for the better.
00:40:09Tiffany Stratton
00:40:10just take a look at
00:40:11the wound she's
00:40:12wearing across her
00:40:14face and body.
00:40:15She was put through
00:40:16the ringer by the
00:40:17most physical
00:40:18Charlotte Flair I've
00:40:20ever seen.
00:40:20and it was a fight
00:40:22in the trenches.
00:40:23We've known for
00:40:23years that Tiffany
00:40:24Stratton could win
00:40:25pretty, well now
00:40:27she could also win
00:40:28ugly, a big
00:40:29development in the
00:40:30career of the
00:40:31champ.
00:40:37What time is it?
00:40:4060,000!
00:40:42That's right, at
00:40:44WrestleMania in front
00:40:45of 60,000 people, it
00:40:47was tiffy time.
00:40:52I went toe-to-toe with
00:40:54one of the greatest
00:40:55of all time, Charlotte
00:40:57Flair.
00:41:02And I can't even lie,
00:41:03there were moments
00:41:04when I doubted myself
00:41:05and the pressure got
00:41:06to me, but in the
00:41:08end, I prevailed and
00:41:10I walked out of
00:41:11WrestleMania, and still
00:41:13your WWE Women
00:41:16Champion.
00:41:27And I was always told
00:41:28for the longest time,
00:41:30Tiffy, you're the next
00:41:32Charlotte Flair.
00:41:33Wrong!
00:41:36There may be only one
00:41:37Charlotte Flair, but I
00:41:39guarantee you, there
00:41:40is only one Tiffany
00:41:42Stratton.
00:41:55Speaking of one of one.
00:42:05Tiffany, cut it!
00:42:07Now, I came here to
00:42:09give credit where it's
00:42:10due, and your match
00:42:13with Charlotte was
00:42:14very impressive, but
00:42:17that did nothing but
00:42:19create a bigger target
00:42:20on your back.
00:42:23And since business is
00:42:26finished with Naomi, I
00:42:28have nothing but time.
00:42:33So I think it's time for
00:42:35me to remind everybody
00:42:37everybody while I came
00:42:38here to WWE.
00:42:42I think it's time for
00:42:44everyone to see why I
00:42:48came here to be a
00:42:50champion.
00:42:52And I think it's time for
00:42:54you to understand just
00:42:56because you beat Charlotte
00:42:57doesn't make you the best,
00:42:59especially when you
00:43:01haven't faced me.
00:43:02Okay, well, why don't you
00:43:09put your money where your
00:43:09mouth is, and let's get a
00:43:11rip out here, right here,
00:43:12right now!
00:43:13A little Wrestlemania
00:43:18encore to the max.
00:43:20Yes!
00:43:20Instant dream matchup in
00:43:22Texas.
00:43:22Tiffany and Jade, let's go!
00:43:24Ow!
00:43:27Well, this is one of those
00:43:28unexpected gifts that just
00:43:30arises every so often.
00:43:32Tiffany Stratton and Jade
00:43:35Cargill meeting up here
00:43:36instantly saying, you know
00:43:37what, let's just do this.
00:43:38Now, what I'm curious about
00:43:40here, Wade, is we saw them
00:43:41both in action Saturday at
00:43:43Wrestlemania in Vegas, but
00:43:45for Jade, you know, listen,
00:43:46two-time women's tag team
00:43:48champion, now trying to
00:43:49gather a little momentum on
00:43:50the singles side, gets the
00:43:51win over Naomi, and now
00:43:53gets to prove herself here
00:43:54against Tiffany.
00:43:55Yeah, I think it's a good
00:43:56point.
00:43:56We've seen Jade Cargill at
00:43:57the top, but you're right,
00:43:58it's been in the tag rank.
00:44:00If you're a champ in the tag
00:44:02world here, but your partner
00:44:03is one of the greatest of all
00:44:05time, Bianca Bell, how much
00:44:07load were you really carrying?
00:44:09Were you being a passenger
00:44:11on those victories?
00:44:12Well, clearly, Jade Cargill
00:44:13proved against Naomi at
00:44:15Wrestlemania, she can stand
00:44:16tall on her own.
00:44:17Oh, it's a roll-up by
00:44:18Stratton.
00:44:19And now, Jade Cargill
00:44:20clearly trying to follow up
00:44:22that big momentum builder
00:44:23against Naomi here, against
00:44:25the champ, Tiffany Stratton.
00:44:27What a statement it would be
00:44:28if the Storm pulls out a
00:44:30big dub tonight.
00:44:31You, Cole, and Pat were on
00:44:32the call for her victory
00:44:34against Naomi.
00:44:35How about some of the
00:44:36displays of power?
00:44:37We saw that match.
00:44:39Yeah, well, these are two
00:44:39great athletes in very
00:44:41different ways.
00:44:42For me, the key with Jade
00:44:44Cargill is that power.
00:44:45There's a moment at
00:44:46Wrestlemania, she plucked
00:44:47Naomi out of thin air as
00:44:49Naomi was going for a
00:44:50blockbuster.
00:44:51I cannot stress, as an
00:44:53athlete, how difficult that
00:44:54is to pull off.
00:44:55The strength and balance and
00:44:57core power to pull that
00:44:58off is ridiculous.
00:44:59There's nothing you can do
00:45:00in a gym to train for
00:45:02that.
00:45:03It's just God-given talent.
00:45:04Now, here's an example of
00:45:06it.
00:45:09And Stratton, able to get
00:45:10that arm dragged there.
00:45:11Tiffany, of course, herself.
00:45:13There it is, right there
00:45:14into the backbreaker, just
00:45:15catching her in midair.
00:45:17But Tiffany, herself,
00:45:18surviving what was such a
00:45:20brutal test of endurance
00:45:22in that draining match
00:45:24against Charlotte Flair.
00:45:26When you reflect on it, as you
00:45:27see, Stratton now coming
00:45:29straight in with that running
00:45:30hip attack as she had Jade
00:45:32up against the ropes, what
00:45:33impressed you the most with
00:45:34Tiffany against Charlotte?
00:45:36Tiffany's ability to not be
00:45:38swallowed up by a more
00:45:39experienced competitor.
00:45:41What a big spine buster there
00:45:42from Jade Cargill.
00:45:43Hold on.
00:45:44One, two.
00:45:45All the pressure on the
00:45:46shoulders of Tiffany
00:45:47Stratton.
00:45:48It was a ginger kick out
00:45:49there.
00:45:49Oh, boy, was it?
00:45:50Stratton is hurting here.
00:45:52Well, listen, I mean, we saw
00:45:54the...
00:45:55We saw what she looked like
00:45:56after the match.
00:45:57And again, just pressing down
00:45:58on the shoulders and able to
00:45:59get that left shoulder up.
00:46:01Well, Stratton still has
00:46:02bruises all over her body,
00:46:04especially on the forehead
00:46:05there from one of the
00:46:06natural selections, I think it
00:46:08was, that connected.
00:46:09She went for that knee, but
00:46:11instead, Stratton went right
00:46:13into the cover, and now the
00:46:14spine buster of her own as
00:46:15she hooks the leg, looking
00:46:17to put away Jade, and Jade
00:46:18easily getting that left
00:46:19shoulder up.
00:46:19You've got to think, the
00:46:20kind of wars that these two
00:46:21women both went through a
00:46:23few days ago at WrestleMania,
00:46:24there's a lot being taken
00:46:26out of these bodies.
00:46:27These two are hurting, and
00:46:29ideally, you would not take
00:46:31this kind of match, but both
00:46:33are such competitors, they
00:46:34want to fight right now.
00:46:35I don't know how smart that
00:46:36is.
00:46:37112 days as champion for
00:46:39Tiffany Stratton, but not
00:46:40backing down from any
00:46:42challenge at all.
00:46:43And it is Tiffy time.
00:46:46You know, it's hard to
00:46:47believe, Wade, she has been
00:46:48headlining, she hooks the
00:46:49leg here, and once again
00:46:51the kick out.
00:46:52She's been headlining for
00:46:53so long now, but it's hard
00:46:55to believe that this past
00:46:56weekend was Stratton's
00:46:58WrestleMania debut.
00:46:59Yeah, it's pretty wild.
00:47:00I mean, she's been in
00:47:01massive events before, most
00:47:02notably probably at NXT,
00:47:04where she's been at the
00:47:05main event level there, and
00:47:07really parlayed that in
00:47:08super quick time to be in
00:47:09the number one in the
00:47:11women's division here.
00:47:12But don't forget, Tiffany
00:47:13Stratton, four years ago,
00:47:15had nothing to do with this
00:47:16industry.
00:47:17Perhaps the quickest
00:47:19developer ever, and in full
00:47:20control here against Jay
00:47:22Cargill.
00:47:22Here in Fort Worth, a big crowd
00:47:27of 11,600 plus sold out at
00:47:31Diggie's Arena, and they are
00:47:32enjoying seeing this.
00:47:34Unexpected, but here they are.
00:47:35Tiffany Stratton and Jay Cargill,
00:47:37of course, less than a week
00:47:38removed from the WrestleMania
00:47:40victories and deciding to test
00:47:42each other.
00:47:42And at this point, Wade, it
00:47:44becomes the rolling symptom.
00:47:45Who has what left in the tank?
00:47:47Here we go, Joe.
00:47:48Here it is.
00:47:49Oh, she trips up on it.
00:47:51Now jumps up.
00:47:52Prettiest moonsault ever, but
00:47:53Jade gets on the way.
00:47:54Yeah, that was a slip that
00:47:55did that.
00:47:56Jade Cargill was bang to
00:47:57right.
00:47:58It shows how beat up
00:47:59Tiffany Stratton is.
00:48:00I've never seen her miss.
00:48:02Oh, but it's now the
00:48:04car where Alabama slammed.
00:48:06Powerbomb Jade, and just in
00:48:08the nick of the time, Tiffy
00:48:09Time survives.
00:48:10Well, it just shows you how
00:48:11powerful Jade Cargill really
00:48:13is.
00:48:14This attempt by Tiffany
00:48:15Stratton.
00:48:16Mid-air.
00:48:17Let me just catch you.
00:48:18Turn it into a powerbomb.
00:48:20Honk it tight.
00:48:21But that is why Tiffany
00:48:22Stratton is the champion.
00:48:24I'm still getting over Tiffany
00:48:26Stratton's slipping on that
00:48:28moonsault attempt.
00:48:29Something I have never seen
00:48:30before.
00:48:31Tiffy's hurting here.
00:48:32But I think it sums up the
00:48:34state of these two.
00:48:36This is not the fresh Barbie
00:48:37doll entrance we saw of
00:48:40Tiffany.
00:48:40I mean, this is somebody that
00:48:41had to get through the fire of
00:48:43Charlotte Flair.
00:48:45Well, she won ugly against
00:48:46Charlotte Flair.
00:48:47She's going to have to win
00:48:48ugly again tonight against
00:48:49Jade Cargill.
00:48:51Looking to create some
00:48:52offensive momentum, but
00:48:53instead, Jade, and oh,
00:48:55and now, looking to
00:48:57counter as Stratton, and
00:48:58she glitters the basement
00:48:59drop kick.
00:49:01Right into the cover.
00:49:03Oh, nice there from
00:49:06Tiffany Stratton.
00:49:07I'll tell you right now, I
00:49:08saw Jade pluck Tiffany
00:49:11from midair attempting
00:49:12jaded.
00:49:15Scarpering out of there
00:49:16with Tiffany Stratton
00:49:17and almost pulling out
00:49:18the win.
00:49:19Wait, there have been two
00:49:20instances in this match
00:49:21now where you're just
00:49:22involved with what Jade
00:49:23Cargill can do with the
00:49:24power and to control an
00:49:26opponent.
00:49:26You saw it there on the
00:49:27cartwheel, I'll be in the
00:49:28slam that she countered to
00:49:29the powerbomb, and then
00:49:30looking for the jaded
00:49:31moments ago, and now quick
00:49:32to meet Tiffany up on the
00:49:34ropes.
00:49:35Again, Tiffany Stratton
00:49:36very slow getting up to
00:49:37that top turn, but
00:49:38overblocks, Jade Cargill.
00:49:41A lot has been taken out of
00:49:43Jade Cargill here.
00:49:44You want to pounce on a
00:49:45pin as quickly as you can,
00:49:47but the body is not
00:49:48cooperating with the mind
00:49:50when it comes to Jade
00:49:52Cargill.
00:49:53And that has allowed an
00:49:54escape here for Tiffany
00:49:55Stratton just when all was
00:49:57looking lost.
00:49:58She looks to roll out of the
00:50:00ring, and you can see the
00:50:01significant bruising on her
00:50:02back.
00:50:03You can see Jade Cargill.
00:50:04Oh, no!
00:50:06Jade said business is finished
00:50:08with Naomi about five minutes
00:50:10ago.
00:50:11No, it's not.
00:50:12Not at all.
00:50:13Well, Naomi may have lost at
00:50:15WrestleMania, but that has
00:50:17clearly settled nothing as far
00:50:21as Naomi is concerned.
00:50:23And deep into this match,
00:50:26when so much was taken out of
00:50:28Jade Cargill, that is when
00:50:30Naomi decides to strike.
00:50:33Slamming her right into the
00:50:35post.
00:50:38An unhinged and vindictive
00:50:41Naomi saying, this ain't over
00:50:44till I say it is.
00:50:46Last Saturday, it was Jade who
00:50:47got the best of her bitter
00:50:49rival.
00:50:50All the emotion attached to
00:50:53these two.
00:50:53And now Naomi comes in and
00:50:56interrupts the action in this
00:50:58match against Tiffany
00:50:59Stratton.
00:51:00After Jade was reaching for
00:51:02her back, was slow to move,
00:51:04and Naomi pounces on her
00:51:05twice now, sending her into
00:51:08the post as her body just
00:51:10drapes to the floor.
00:51:14Tiffany Stratton back on her
00:51:17feet.
00:51:20And Naomi decides to exit on
00:51:26that stair-down.
00:51:27Naomi came here for one
00:51:28reason and one reason only.
00:51:30And Nia Jax!
00:51:35The former mentee of Tiffany
00:51:39Stratton, who Stratton
00:51:42stabbed in the bank to cash in
00:51:44the Money in the Bank contract
00:51:46and take the goal from
00:51:48back in January.
00:51:53Can you believe it's one
00:51:55third for Naomi?
00:51:57But now, Nia Jax with the
00:51:59leg drop on Tiffany
00:52:02Stratton.
00:52:03It's the ghost of Christmas
00:52:05past.
00:52:10And this is a violent assault
00:52:13on the WWE women's champion
00:52:16looking for the annihilator on
00:52:20Tiffany time.
00:52:20I'm back for what's mine,
00:52:26Tiffany Stratton.
00:52:27That was hers.
00:52:31And then the cash-in
00:52:33happens
00:52:34112 days ago.
00:52:38Nia Jax returns
00:52:40and makes
00:52:41that statement.
00:52:42Just when you thought the
00:52:48Tiffany win over Charlotte
00:52:49Clare would bring great
00:52:51clarity to the women's
00:52:52division, that happens.
00:52:53The Motor City Machine Guns,
00:52:55they are preparing for
00:52:56tables, ladders, and chairs.
00:52:59A triple threat for the
00:53:00WWE Tag Team Championship
00:53:02with DIY Industry Profits.
00:53:06But coming up next,
00:53:08Bob Tew, the new
00:53:10United States Champion.
00:53:12What's up, WWE Universe?
00:53:18Guess what?
00:53:19SummerSlam, MetLife,
00:53:21two nights, and I will
00:53:22finally be hopeful.
00:53:33And nobody better try me.
00:53:36WWE SummerSlam, a two-night
00:53:38event at MetLife.
00:53:40What a great night here in
00:53:42Fort Worth, we're at
00:53:43Dickey's Arena, sold-out
00:53:44crowd of over 11,000.
00:53:4616 miles away from
00:53:48AT&T Stadium.
00:53:49Of course, it was three
00:53:50years ago that was the
00:53:51home of WrestleMania.
00:53:53Come off with
00:53:53WrestleMania 41 in
00:53:55Vegas, where one of the
00:53:56big stars of the night
00:53:58was Jacob Batu,
00:54:00becoming the new
00:54:01U.S.
00:54:011, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 4, 5.
00:54:103, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 9, 10, 9, 10, 10.
00:54:10Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Solo Sokoa and the new United States Champion,
00:54:36the Samoan Werewolves, straight to VATU!
00:54:44VATU was Solo leading the way, of course when the year started, Solo was leading the way,
00:54:49he was then the new travel chief, by last week he was the chief support for VATU,
00:54:54he was softening up L.A. night in singles and tag action, and then hyping him up for weeks as the next U.S. Champion,
00:55:01well that came to be, didn't it?
00:55:04There's been some major tensions over the past couple of months between Solo and Jacob VATU,
00:55:09but Solo Sokoa has played an absolute masterstroke in guiding Jacob VATU to his first championship goal here,
00:55:20in the singles ranks, and there's nothing like a good slice of gold to put tensions away for good.
00:55:28Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, show some love and respect for your new United States Champion, Jacob VATU!
00:55:55At WrestleMania, everyone saw what I already knew, that Jacob VATU, he's the future, he is the future of this company.
00:56:02But let me remind you something, nobody in my family, nobody wanted Jacob VATU.
00:56:07Except me.
00:56:08They thought he was trouble.
00:56:09They thought he was trouble.
00:56:10Nobody in my family, nobody wanted Jacob VATU, except me.
00:56:14They thought he was trouble.
00:56:15Thought he was trouble.
00:56:16Thought he was too much of a risk.
00:56:17But you know who changed that?
00:56:19What?
00:56:20What?
00:56:21You know who made it all happen?
00:56:22What?
00:56:23What?
00:56:24You know who made it all happen?
00:56:25What?
00:56:26What?
00:56:27What?
00:56:28What?
00:56:29What?
00:56:30What's the reason?
00:56:31What?
00:56:32What's the reason?
00:56:33What?
00:56:34What?
00:56:36What's the reason?
00:56:49I'm the reason that Jacob's the champion.
00:56:54I'm the one that brought him here.
00:56:56I'm the one that took him to the promised land.
00:56:59I took Jacob off the streets and made him into United States champion.
00:57:03Jacob is here because of me.
00:57:05This is exactly what happens when you love your family.
00:57:09Jacob would not be standing there if it wasn't.
00:57:19See, let's not get it twisted.
00:57:33I told you I was going to win the U.S. title.
00:57:39I told you the U.S. title was coming home to the family.
00:57:44And I told you I was going to do it with you or without you.
00:57:54And that's exactly what I did.
00:57:58So Texas, look at you do U.S. champ.
00:58:02You see, I know that this title makes me America's most wanted.
00:58:16Hell, I know that this title makes me a menace to society.
00:58:21But at the end of the day, you better get in where you fit in.
00:58:31Because I'm all gas, no brakes with it.
00:58:36Y'all did I mean?
00:58:38Five, two, three.
00:58:41I'm all gas, no brakes with it.
00:59:11Let me talk to you.
00:59:17At WrestleMania, I guaranteed, I told you you would need a BFT.
00:59:24And by God, you ain't a BFT.
00:59:29I dropped you right there on your big fat mopped head.
00:59:32You reached out, grabbed the rope, and good for you.
00:59:36Because after that, you were able to capitalize, and you were able to beat me right in the middle of that ring.
00:59:41I'll give credit where credit's due.
00:59:45It can happen to anybody, any night.
00:59:47Anybody can get it.
00:59:49But you've got to understand something.
00:59:51I'll walk back there, and everybody says,
00:59:53Man, you had a hell of a match at WrestleMania.
00:59:56But I ain't worried about having a hell of a match.
01:00:01I'm worried about winning.
01:00:03I'm worried about taking that championship.
01:00:05And if you can't understand what I'm saying,
01:00:07what I'm saying is I want my rematch, and I want it right now.
01:00:11Scottish Warrior looking to crash this FATU LA night party.
01:00:32The winner of the Sin City Straight Fight.
01:00:36And with that much abuse that he absorbed, it's astounding that he's on two feet.
01:00:51You know, Dallas, it's not always easy being Drew McIntyre.
01:00:56I mean, personally, it is.
01:01:07Being tall, jacked, handsome, and much like Texas, I got some big guns.
01:01:14But professionally, I've been screwed over time and time again.
01:01:18Every world title match, the WrestleMania,
01:01:21I had to get through the last roadblock.
01:01:23And I beat Damian Priest in one of the most violent matches in WrestleMania history.
01:01:31So, Priest, I know you're not here tonight.
01:01:34We're not going to see you for a while.
01:01:35So, I want to take a moment to say thank you.
01:01:40It was an absolute pleasure to embarrass you in front of your entire family.
01:01:44The next plan was challenge John Cena for the world title.
01:01:55And then, Randy Orton jumped the line.
01:01:58The same Randy Orton.
01:01:59I beat three weeks ago.
01:02:01I'm starting to wonder, everybody,
01:02:02is it World Wrestling Entertainment or Nepo Wrestling Entertainment?
01:02:07Speaking of which, High Bloodline.
01:02:09Are you done yet?
01:02:16I'll get to you in a second.
01:02:18Yeah, continue on.
01:02:21I've been watching Cena these past few weeks.
01:02:23I watched him tonight.
01:02:25He ain't the same guy.
01:02:27He's a punk now.
01:02:30Drew McIntyre wants to fight the baddest dog in the yard.
01:02:34I want to fight the baddest champion in the yard.
01:02:41Jacob, I want to fight you.
01:02:47Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:02:50Can somebody wake me up when this mush mouth is done?
01:02:54Always with the jokes, ain't it?
01:02:55Always with the jokes.
01:02:56The only joke around here was your last U.S. title run.
01:02:59I would say your last title run was a joke, but I can't remember it.
01:03:19So I'll tell you what.
01:03:20You got a problem with Randy Orton, go talk to Randy Orton.
01:03:24But right now, you're standing here at a time that's my time
01:03:27when I said I want my U.S. championship.
01:03:29But if you think that you want to make claim to that U.S. championship,
01:03:33I'll tell you what.
01:03:34You think you deserve it so bad.
01:03:36Why don't you come on in here and show me?
01:03:40Okay.
01:03:42Drew is not bashful about taking invitations.
01:03:44Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:03:45Hold on a second there, fellas.
01:03:48I think we can all see where this is going.
01:03:51So before you two tear each other apart,
01:03:54how about I offer an alternative?
01:03:56How about you come back here,
01:03:59you put your tights on,
01:04:00you put your boots on,
01:04:01you lace them up tight,
01:04:03and Fort Worth, Texas,
01:04:05I'll give you Drew McIntyre versus L.A. Knight.
01:04:13One-on-one tonight.
01:04:15And the winner is the number one contender
01:04:17for the United States Championship.
01:04:20Oh, is that a great number one contender's match?
01:04:22Best GM ever.
01:04:24There's a log jam for the number one contendership,
01:04:28and we're going to fix it right here in Fort Worth.
01:04:32Love it!
01:04:33A little Jacob Patu,
01:04:35Yada Amin on that, Wade.
01:04:42Before you head out there,
01:04:44two weeks ago,
01:04:45you beat Chelsea Green by count-out.
01:04:47Then last week,
01:04:48you beat her by pinfall.
01:04:50But if things go your way tonight,
01:04:51you're going to become
01:04:52the new women's United States champion.
01:04:56Where are your thoughts at?
01:04:57Honestly, Byron,
01:05:00I know I'm known to have a big mouth,
01:05:02and I always got something to say,
01:05:03but tonight is one of those nights
01:05:06where I'm actually speechless.
01:05:08And it's because it means so much to me.
01:05:10I've wanted this for so long.
01:05:12And just like my mentor,
01:05:13Remy Mysterio,
01:05:14who's a former United States champion,
01:05:16and Eddie Guerrero,
01:05:16who's a former United States champion,
01:05:18I kind of want to bring
01:05:19some Latino heat into my match tonight.
01:05:21And of course,
01:05:22just like how they do it here in Texas,
01:05:24you go big or you go home.
01:05:26And Byron,
01:05:27I'm not going home
01:05:28until I have
01:05:29that United States championship
01:05:30around my waist.
01:05:32Zelina, good luck tonight.
01:05:36The U.S. championship match
01:05:39that Zelina Vega
01:05:40desperately wanted
01:05:41and earned.
01:05:43She gets next.
01:05:45Against Chelsea.
01:05:47Hey, remember,
01:05:48we still have our TLC
01:05:49Tag Team Championship
01:05:50coming your way commercial-free.
01:05:52And now this
01:05:53United States championship match.
01:05:56The following contest
01:05:59is scheduled for 1-4
01:06:01and is for
01:06:02the Women's
01:06:03United States Championship.
01:06:07Introducing first
01:06:08from Queens,
01:06:10New York,
01:06:12Zelina Vega.
01:06:15Hey, a couple weeks ago,
01:06:17perhaps you could say
01:06:17it was a fluky win for Vega
01:06:19when Chelsea Green
01:06:20was unknowingly counted out.
01:06:21But Wave last week,
01:06:23Vega proved herself.
01:06:29Angular,
01:06:30in that singles match,
01:06:31we don't need
01:06:32Secret Herbis
01:06:32at ringside.
01:06:33Thank you so much.
01:06:34Well, that lack of
01:06:39Secret Herbis protection
01:06:40put the champ
01:06:41on the back foot.
01:06:42But Green almost
01:06:43grabbed victory
01:06:44before things went downhill.
01:06:47Vega connecting
01:06:48with what is a
01:06:49super cold red
01:06:51for the dub,
01:06:52adding further
01:06:53to Vega's demands
01:06:55for a title opportunity
01:06:57that tonight
01:06:57had been granted.

01:07:29Boy, she is
01:07:54excellent in the ring,
01:07:55but some may call her
01:07:57grating or cringe over
01:07:59her constant
01:07:59self-promotion
01:08:00and complaints.
01:08:02Some would say
01:08:02it's fueled by
01:08:03an inflated sense
01:08:04of entitlement
01:08:05or delusional
01:08:06lack of awareness.
01:08:07Some would argue
01:08:08it's simply
01:08:09unbridled arrogance.
01:08:10Others salute
01:08:11and pledge allegiance
01:08:12and have names
01:08:13like Hypernibbit
01:08:14and Albafire
01:08:16and Wade Barrett.
01:08:18I see pure talent
01:08:20and I am personally
01:08:21standing to attention
01:08:23and saluting
01:08:25our champion
01:08:27Chelsea Green
01:08:29in Chelsea
01:08:30we trust.
01:08:33Shows a respect,
01:08:34Joseph.
01:08:35You are absolutely
01:08:36incorrigible
01:08:37when it comes
01:08:39to Chelsea Green.
01:08:40That is what is
01:08:41on the line.
01:08:42That is what
01:08:43Zelina Vega
01:08:44has earned
01:08:45the right
01:08:46to fight for.
01:08:48That's debatable.
01:08:49The United States
01:08:50Championship
01:08:50but Green tries
01:08:51to go on the attack
01:08:52early on
01:08:52and Vega gets
01:08:53out of the way
01:08:54and delivers
01:08:55right hand
01:08:55after right hand
01:08:56weighed after
01:08:57two straight wins
01:08:59against Chelsea Green
01:09:00to earn this opportunity.
01:09:02Was looking for
01:09:02the unprettier.
01:09:03Two straight wins
01:09:04pump the brakes there.
01:09:05There's a caveat.
01:09:06The caveat being
01:09:06on those two straight wins
01:09:08the secret
01:09:09Hervis
01:09:09were not here
01:09:10to protect the champ.
01:09:12They're here tonight.
01:09:13I'm sorry,
01:09:13who's protecting
01:09:14Zelina Vega.
01:09:16Zelina Vega
01:09:16if she has no protection
01:09:18against somebody
01:09:18as talented
01:09:19as the champ
01:09:20Chelsea Green
01:09:21is going to lose
01:09:22Joe Test.
01:09:22That's how this works.
01:09:23Now Vega came up
01:09:24with a very good win
01:09:26that we just saw
01:09:26moments ago
01:09:27a week ago.
01:09:28Non-title match
01:09:28to earn this.
01:09:29Prior to that
01:09:29it was the count out.
01:09:30By the way,
01:09:31Ryan Tran
01:09:32the same referee
01:09:33for this championship match.
01:09:36He's had an outstanding career.
01:09:38Always fair and balanced
01:09:39and does the best
01:09:40possible job he can.
01:09:41But he was the referee
01:09:43when there was that count out
01:09:44a few weeks ago.
01:09:45Oh, and look at Alba Fire.
01:09:46He's become known
01:09:47as fast count referee.
01:09:49I've timed that 10.
01:09:50Oh, man.
01:09:51Are you kidding me
01:09:52with the distraction
01:09:53and all of a sudden
01:09:54the secret Hervis
01:09:55takes advantage.
01:10:02Back here in Fort Worth
01:10:04Joe Tessitore
01:10:05and Wade Barrett
01:10:06with you.
01:10:06Women's United States
01:10:07Championship match
01:10:08Chelsea Green
01:10:09looking to defend
01:10:10against Zelina Vega.
01:10:12We mentioned the fact
01:10:13that in the last two
01:10:14non-title matches
01:10:15when Vega came up
01:10:16with a victory
01:10:16the secret Hervis
01:10:18Piper and Alba
01:10:19were not there
01:10:20to protect Chelsea Green.
01:10:22They've already played
01:10:23a major role tonight, Wade.
01:10:24Chelsea gets nervous
01:10:25without her security team
01:10:27in play.
01:10:27She feels vulnerable
01:10:28at the mercy
01:10:29of any riffraff
01:10:30who wants to
01:10:31make a name
01:10:32for themselves
01:10:32at the expense
01:10:34of the champ.
01:10:34Oh, my God.
01:10:35Look at the will
01:10:36and grit
01:10:37of Zelina Vega
01:10:38trying to fight back
01:10:39and delivering.
01:10:41We saw a
01:10:42super code red
01:10:43last week.
01:10:44That was a
01:10:44super release
01:10:45German suplex
01:10:47connecting high
01:10:48on the neck
01:10:49and shoulders
01:10:50of the champ
01:10:50and that might be
01:10:51the moment
01:10:52that the tie
01:10:52begins to turn
01:10:53in this one.
01:10:54What a trigger war
01:10:55that was
01:10:56won by Zelina Vega.
01:10:58Keep in mind
01:10:59that is what
01:11:00they are battling for
01:11:01and for Zelina Vega.
01:11:03She has competed
01:11:04for a singles title
01:11:05five times
01:11:06in her WWE career.
01:11:080-5.
01:11:10Looking to finally
01:11:11break through
01:11:12is Zelina Vega.
01:11:14Attended a knee
01:11:15to the jaw
01:11:16there on Vega.
01:11:16Vega was just
01:11:17too quick
01:11:17and now with that
01:11:18spinning back elbow
01:11:19flattens the champ.
01:11:21And that back elbow
01:11:22then sets her up
01:11:23with a running knee
01:11:24into the corner
01:11:25and now Vega
01:11:25is climbing up top.
01:11:28And all over the place
01:11:29now is the champ
01:11:30Chelsea Green.
01:11:31No clue where
01:11:32she's at.
01:11:32Oh my God!
01:11:33Zelina Vega
01:11:34in position
01:11:35to win the championship.
01:11:37Oh, what a huge
01:11:39meteora there, Joe.
01:11:41And that perhaps
01:11:42is the moment
01:11:43that Vega
01:11:44thought she had it.
01:11:44Well, wait a second.
01:11:45Now look at elbow fire
01:11:46just as you described Wade.
01:11:48A cheap shot there
01:11:49from Zelina Vega.
01:11:51Cheap shot.
01:11:51She's clearing the apron
01:11:52but in giving time
01:11:54to Chelsea Green
01:11:55Green looks to take control
01:11:57looking for a prettier again.
01:11:58But instead
01:11:59Zelina Vega
01:12:01with the backstabber
01:12:03and now Vega says
01:12:04I want a little 6-1-9
01:12:06to top my knife.
01:12:08Oh, Piper trips her up.
01:12:15This has gone too far
01:12:17with a secret harvest.
01:12:19And now Ryan Tran
01:12:21and finally turns around
01:12:22and sees it.
01:12:25Get out of here!
01:12:27Rip this play to them!
01:12:29I'm standing out!
01:12:31Give me 10 minutes!
01:12:33Justice is served.
01:12:34The secret harvest
01:12:36evicted
01:12:36from the matchup
01:12:38but it might be academic
01:12:40because back in control
01:12:41is Chelsea Green.
01:12:43Oh!
01:12:44Co-reps!
01:12:45Co-reps!
01:12:46Do we have it?
01:12:47No!
01:12:47Oh my!
01:12:48Oh my!
01:12:49Oh my!
01:12:50A stutter in Texas!
01:12:52Here is your winner
01:12:53and the new
01:12:56Women's United States Champion
01:13:01Zelina Vega!
01:13:05Zelina Vega!
01:13:06Her first
01:13:07WWE singles title!
01:13:11It's a hit and run
01:13:13that nobody saw coming!
01:13:16Zelina Vega
01:13:18winning her first
01:13:19singles championship!
01:13:21She has slayed
01:13:22that demon!
01:13:23and I think
01:13:25Joe Tess
01:13:26we are all
01:13:27in shock
01:13:28the ultimate
01:13:29underdog
01:13:30in the women's division!
01:13:31And
